Interesting commentary in this article:
“That makes things tough on black female college students and graduates who are looking for a mate with those of a similar educational background, says Robert Billingham, an associate professor of human development at Indiana University.” [more ‘twisted sister’ logic?]
More women going to college than men, and it makes it tough for the women?
Then a large part of the article by Megan Scott of The Associated Press, focuses upon how this vast majority of women, with few men to go around, are taken advantage of sexually.
Seem to recall elsewhere, I have read commentary about the changing trend, from the older one of the young wife helping her hubby thru school, to the new one of the hubby putting his wife thru school.
In the remainder of the article cited here, the problem seems to be 1) finding a privileged male; 2) suffering the advantage of her majority; 3) most men need education (& no doubt pay their own way); or 4) too many men are either working or in prison.

I once had a woman tell me that the draft is harder on women than on men because, "We have to live without our men." Same thought process.

Yep. Warren Farrell points out how an article in Parade titled "Short End of the Stick" said that women got the short end of the stick when millions of Russian men were killed in wars (mostly forced to fight) because the women got stuck with the factory and streetcleaning jobs. Same thought pattern.

Ya it really sucks for those Russian women that all those men were brutally murdered in war fighting over something they didnt care about with someone they didnt know. Poor girls. I tell you what they can all come over here I'll fix them up personally.
That reminds me of the women being raped in Afghanistan. I think if women here knew what they were doing the Afghanistan men they would think rape was a picnic. Somebodies got there priorities a little messed up, because I know I would choose rape over being mutilated with extreme predjuduce. I'm not condoning the violence for anyone but I am condeming the total lack of acknowledgement. Dan Lynch

Who's committing the atrocities against these men?
Certainly not women. Nice to know that even though the women in Afghanistan were not allowed to have any power they're still allowed to be raped in large numbers but I guess they're the lucky ones who didn't die in agony during childbirth while the country was being run by these "protective" men. Sickening.

What women don't understand about war is that they are catagorically accessories after the fact. Its all fine and dandy for Jane Fonda to go over to see P.O.W.s and tell them they were bad little boys, when she never had the threat of being drafted. Many, many wars are fought simply over natural resources, which women need and demand from their mates. So instead of critizing the methods of which survival is obtained why don't you give us a solution as to who gets the oil and stops fanatics from killing us because we never heard of some god who rewards them for killing us.

Were the millions of Russian men going off to fight armies of women? Not likely.

I think the killcount was 20 million russian men killed. Un-believable.

Same logic with the Titanic after it went down. To receive the clean-up operations of the Titanic, meaning people dead & alive... a dock in NYC was assigned for arriving baggage. The women rescued off the ship arrived much earlier then the men who were most already disposed up.
So all the women were lined up on the dock. Hence the name Christened to the dock then, Widows' Dock or Widows' Row.
I suppose the surviors & the living suffer most. Especially then, those times the weeping. Because who else put the women in the lifeboats first? The ones who mostly died. The same ones then, who made the paycheck. The loss of permanent paycheck is truly worth a real cry.

Isnt this the same mentality that Warren Ferrel talked about in his book?????
Men are not able to go to college women are still victims. Victim , victim, victim. Megan is the victim of her own hallucinations. How can these people claim victimhood of their own demise, where the black woman has been promoted into every area for her best interest, maybe she out smarted her self by buying into all the crap Politicians have been selling her for the last 10 years or so.
I THINK I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE WHEN I SAY W.T.F.???????????????
Maybe a copy of the book 'poor little rich girl' was going around that week. Dan Lynch
p.s. hey megan get a grip.

I wonder what the ratio is for applicants:enrollment is for each sex?
We all know colleges now actively market schools to the specific interests of women.

I have seen the ratio climb to nearly 60% female to male at most universities. But those heathens at M.I.T. out rank women by like 90% or something.

none of my research is validated, just what I have seen and read in books etc....

I'm not particularly - I hear so much about how women should be going to college, it's not nearly as important if men go to college. The prevailing message is still that of women are neglected in education and the job market, and young women these days need to fight to get an education and a good job - a few might of noticed it really isn't that difficult. Their fight is misdirected and they don't want to acknowledge it.

I actually feel badly for the black women. This has been a problem for years and it's very understandable why a college-educated person would require a partner to be college-educated.
I see few black woman-white man couples and I don't know if it's due to black women's not wanting to be with white men or white men's not being physically attracted to black women, or both.
However, the percentages of white men and women are about equal on the campuses and the white women are doing just fine. If the ratios shifted and white women started to outnumber white men I would think back to all of those women who were so very choosy in rejecting me back in my dating years and laugh my ass off.

I agree completely. I know many men who will not even consider dating a woman who does not have a college degree and an established career. Most men don't want to be stuck supporting a woman who doesn't work or makes minimum wage. If we all agree this is perfectly understandable, we should also agree that a woman not wanting to be stuck supporting a man who doesn't work or who makes minimum wage is just as understandable. If you find the idea of supporting another person awful, why do you think someone else will think it's great?

What has come over the cowardly black men nowadays? Are they too chicken to go to college? Are they too much of imprisoned mama's boys? Are they afraid of being violent suicidal rapists on campus? Somebody, particularly their mamas [not their abusive, unfaithful, suicidal papas] should get to these brothers and say, "GET A LIFE, AND GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!!!" Are you afraid that you sisters are higher, bigger and smarter than you? That they are poor, lonely, and cheated sisters [LADIES FIRST!!!! MEN!!!], and that these so-called brothers are dishonest, selfish, greedy, smut-loving hustler pimps [hey, most men always lie, cheat, and beat!!! It's the truth!!!]??? WHY DON'T YOU TELL THOSE SICK EXCUSES FOR BROTHERS, TO BE MEN AND GROW UP???!!!
OH, AND TELL THESE BOO-THERS TO APOLOGIZE TO THEIR SISTERS FOR ALIENATING THEM IN THE COLLEGE WORLD!!!
DEATH TO THE PAST [AND PRESENT] SICK GENERATION OF BLACK MEN!!!!!
